what iz up
I used to do that. Youve just gotta find what you like and dont worry about your frends type of character. Just cus ur frends a khajiit, doesnt mean u cant be a khajitt. Remember, your character will always be origional

I really wish you could change the warpaint throughout the game. Both my characters looked good at the time but now seem rather ugly.
At least I'm staring at the back of their heads most of the time so I don't have to see their faces XP
And I spent like an hour making a male character, decided he was fugly and then spent an hour making a new female.

Always and i did the same for oblivion.

I have started over three (no, four) times and whatever excuse I give myself, the underlying fact was I wasn't attached to my character because of the way they looked. The female orc was the worst. I went to wearing the execution hood myself there at the end... Now I have a very comely Nord who I think will finally see the entirety of Skyrim where none of them have before.
And before you ask, yes, she wears shoes.

Well, I broke down and joined the ranks of the multiple char folks. I have made 5 now but always before I would delete the old games (for a variety of reasons). This time I kept my self restricted Nord archer and made a High Elf Mage who does anything for the coin. Still playing under some restrictions with the Elf, but not as many.
I can now see how you can have multiple games going at the same time without getting bored with the same missions. One can be following one line of the story and playstyle and the other a whole different angle.
Like it wasn't bad enough when I only had one character to play with, now I may never leave the house.
I find myself already wondering if I shouldn't create another one and try the sword and board only route.
What a great game that it is still just as much fun as the day I got it (if not better since this forum provides a wonderful "sauce" to my Skyrim feast!

If you are currently playing more than one character in Skyrim, I owe you an apology. Since I have been on this forum I have secretly scoffed the idea of having more than one character at a time as just a waste of time.
I could not have been more wrong. Herein lies the apology. : )
Last night I made a new character and was going to keep two. One was level 20 or so and one was brand new. Well, long story short, the level 20 character was saved over and I was stuck with just one new character. (there is a point to this rant, I promise).
Well faced with having to start from scratch for the 6th time it dawned on me that if I had multiple characters created now, they would all be relatively even and I could try all the playstyles at once!
So I did just that. I now have four characters, all different races and "jobs" and I am exploring different angles of the game with each of them.
So, in my own reluctance to try and understand why anyone would want more than one character, I have limited my Skyrim experience. I truly feel now that I can get the whole picture of what Skyrim has to offer.
One character dies, ok, load another one and try something different!
If you haven't tried it, I implore you, try it. Just be sure you turn autosave off and manually save (and pay attention to what file you are saving!)
So thank you, multiple character pioneers, you have a new recruit.

Has anyone ever played Perfect World here? I used to love just designing new characters for it. It's a horrible game, but its character creation is among the best I've ever seen. You can get just about any look whatsoever out of it. I'm actually kind of glad that Skyrim character creation isn't so detailed. I don't have to think so hard about design. These days, I just slap something together that looks cool and go with it. It's not like I have to stare at her face too terribly often anyway.

Giving it to you straight since 1869
Yep, I just do the basic things and be done with it. I don't really bother much with the tint of the eyebrows, or the width of his upper cheek LOL. But some people do like making really detailed ones.

Just in time for the fiyahworks show! BOOM!
I kinda want to make a Lucien LaChance look alike. Still debating.
